Green & Co. S report on cotton futures saws:
Trade has been very light all around, and it
was generally an unimportant market with no
great change in the line lof value. On the old
crop months bidding proved quite Indifferent,
but offerings also seemed careful and rates were
fairly well held. the close showing Just frac~
ton under last evening. New crop was also IN
small supply from local sources, but the South
appeared inclined to sell and that created little
weakness, with 2Q3 poipts shading as the re-
suit. As whole, however, trading was eX-
tremely limited, and it proved thoroughly half

CHICAGO, July 23.-An eiPht-foot corn stalk
was passed around the pits this morning, but it
did not break the market August was even
shade higher than yesterday, opening at 311sc
and quickly selling at 37Ac. Trading was
active though not of a character to keep prices
up A slightly bearsh tendency existed in
wheat August opened low at zoe and fell back
lac, then lowering between 69Ac and zoe; The
arrival of only 5000 hogs at the yards had a
slightly eleVatlng influence on PROVISIONS, snort
ribs opening at S. and keeping up at that. Prac-
tcally nothing transpired during the first hour.
The symptoms early were that wheat would be
heavy. and these were not belied. The market
was extremely dull all day, and in the last hour
tended steadily downward. AT no time was
August over 5O1sc, and shortly after noon it
entirely by tne local scalpint element. Although
the prospects are for a Material reduction in
Chicago wheat stocks this week, the market
was not appreciably tirmer by it. One estimate
makes 10000 bushels less wheat here than a
week ago The last half hour was hard on all
speculative values in both pits. No 9 corn was
hammered little harder, for there was a
greater number of traders in it and many of
them anxious to sell out. The low point in corn
was 363zc August wheat closed at G91Sc, which
was also the lowest point OF the day. Corn has
lost considerable of the buoyancy that marked
it during the early week. To-day's range was
only about SIC. and the close heavy at bottom
figures There was less of demand for il from
small sources, while good many long were dis
posed to unload.
Cash quotations to-day ruled as follows: Flour
